Ferndale to Host Rural County Representatives Meeting

Press release from the Rural County Representatives of California, which is chaired by Humboldt County First District Supervisor Rex Bohn:

Nearly 50 locally elected officials, county leaders and staff will descend upon Humboldt County later this month as the Rural County Representatives of California (RCRC) hosts its April Board of Directors meeting in Ferndale. Humboldt County Supervisor Rex Bohn serves as the 2018 Chair of the 35-member county strong organization.

The two-day event commences Wednesday April 26th with a tour of the county and a couple local businesses, followed by dinner at the Ivanhoe Restaurant and Saloon. The event will conclude with the RCRC Board of Directors meeting at Ferndale City Hall on Thursday April 26th at 8:30 a.m.

“My role as Chair of RCRC often takes me to Sacramento and Washington, D.C. to advocate for California’s rural counties,” said Supervisor Bohn. “This event allows me to share beautiful Humboldt County with my rural colleagues, and showcase the progress we’re making on a number of fronts.”

“RCRC’s event will provide a substantial mid-week economic boost to Ferndale,” said Paul Beatie, President of the Ferndale Chamber of Commerce. “Ferndale’s unique businesses are excited to welcome RCRC to town, and have been working for the past month to roll out the red carpet!”

Rex Bohn shouldn’t be representing anything or anybody. The entire board of supervisors are sellouts. Their idea of representation has already shot our cost of living up. They’re all about real estate taxes/fees and development. Out with them all.

‘My role as Chair of RCRC Often takes me to Sacramento and D.C. to advocate for California’s rural counties.” NOT on your public service job description Rex.

The Supervisors main four duties to perform, are:

Protect the air space above Humboldt
Protect the forests
Protect the rivers
Repair and maintain the roads

Report card – Failure on all four. “. . . showcase the progress we’re making on a number of fronts.”

Perhaps Rex attributes the Supes. ‘No Debate’ on their bogus Consent Calendar as progress.
Perhaps Rex views the year-round mindless clear cutting of the forests as progress.
Perhaps Rex pats himself on the back for year-round rock and gravel mining on the rivers as progress.
With huge piles of gravel in-place for so long that there’s bushes and grasses growing out of them, road repair simply isn’t an issue.

With the current opioid and ‘mental health’ epidemics, the 1,000 foreign HHS employees and the Supes., must have an unknown definition of ‘health’.

No Sheriff
No Coroner
No Recorder
No Grand Jury
A District A . who refuses to prosecute a Sheriff and Deputies caught stealing from the deceased.
How ‘safe’ do you feel?
